Instinct Or Reason?

By Julia Lockwood

Book Overview

""Instinct or Reason?"" by Julia Lockwood is a thought-provoking book that explores the age-old debate of whether humans rely more on their instincts or their reason to make decisions. The book delves into the history of this debate, tracing it back to ancient Greek philosophy and examining how it has evolved over time. Lockwood presents a balanced argument, acknowledging the importance of both instinct and reason in decision-making. She provides numerous real-world examples to illustrate her points, from the gut instincts of successful business leaders to the rational decision-making of scientists and politicians. The book also explores the role of emotions in decision-making, and how they can either enhance or hinder our ability to make sound choices. Lockwood draws on insights from psychology and neuroscience to explain the complex interplay between our instincts, reason, and emotions. Overall, ""Instinct or Reason?"" is a fascinating read that will appeal to anyone interested in human behavior and decision-making.
